Mitch Haniger Interview – Recorded: June 15, 2012

I had the pleasure of being joined on the phone earlier tonight by recently inked 2012 First-Year Player Draft Pick, and the 38th player taken overall this year: Mitch Haniger.

Haniger is an outfielder who played collegiately at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo.*sharp inhale*

We discuss why Haniger didn’t sign after being drafted out of high school by the Mets, what led him to Cal Poly, his experiences playing in a wood bat league last summer in Wisconsin, where he’ll be playing the rest of this summer, and a multitude of other things.

Download the file and give it a listen. Then, if you’re on Twitter, be sure to give Mitch a follow and a congratulatory tweet on his account: @M_Hanny19
